I don't think handwriting is a fair skill to be assessed.

Whereas many people over 30 may have neat clear handwriting and will have been taught it; many under 30 will not. Simply they have completed the bulk of their studies using keyboards for the written word.

Their typing skills are likely to be far superior to the older codgers and as nearly all prose is now typed in the workplace; this is the more important skill.

Additonally - girls have neat handwriting and they can't reverse park...

Cheers
